Title: Is ASRock ATX LGA 1151 H170A-X1 a good start point for mining?
Post by: oliverm91 on December 26, 2017, 04:56:29 AM
I was looking for something cheap. I found this one for 83 USD. How many gpus can it have without risers?

Slots: 2x PCI-Express 3.0 x16 Slots (one runs at x4), 3x PCI-Express 3.0 x1 Slots (Flexible PCIe)

2? 3? 5?... 1 for the size (width) of the card?

Any other MB recommended to start in a budget?

Thanks

i have the same MB, works quite well with two cards only. Limited bio options.

Check old posts you should be able to find some MBs in similar price range.

this MB is listed as ATX, but actually quite smaller than those standard ATX in my opinion, also build quality is so so.
